ASP not working on different server
Ok, i'm new to asp, familiar with VB. I had an asp website dumped in my lap today... have to have it ready in 2 weeks. The people want me to redesign the website ("look" only). I copied all the files from it's current server to my server. When I tried to open the default.asp page from MY server it does not work. I get an error message that the path to the database is not a valid path. The login doesn't work, nothing. All files were copied exactly as they were on the previous server (no change in names). All databases, EVERYTHING was copied. Any ideas on what is going wrong or tips i should know are greatly appreciated.
thanks

Do you know whether you can run asp on your server?

I'm assuming your website and database are on the same server? Why don't you post your db connection code here (don't list the username and password) so we can check it out.
